    If you prefer sleeping with the window open for fresh air, you may notice some street noise.

    This hotel is in an excellent central location, less than a two-minute walk from trams and buses, making it very convenient for getting around. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and comfortable, and I especially appreciated the heated bathroom floors. Breakfast was a highlight—the waffles were honestly some of the best I’ve ever had.

    Everything was great, but particularly the comfortable armchairs in the foyer where coffee was available all day, the impressive staircase, the large bedroom with period furniture. Plus we were allowed to check in early at 10 and have breakfast without charge

    Upon arrival, the staff greeted us with genuine warmth and friendliness, setting a positive tone for our stay. The room was exceptionally comfortable (with air conditioning), situated in a beautifully renovated hotel that retains the charm and style of its era. Although our time in Gothenburg was brief—we had just one day and needed to depart early for the ferry—the staff ensured our needs were met by providing a takeaway breakfast, for which we were truly grateful.

    This hotel is very beautiful and cozy. Recommend this place if you want a more traditional swedish styled hotel. I am always coming back every year to stay there. The location is very convenient. Close to the Gothenburg station and city.

    Nothing wrong at all!

    Everything was over and above expectations. The Bkfst and the setting were both wonderful and made you feel special due to the quality. The staff was very helpful and the tea cakes and coffee/tea station was perfect after a long day out. Love this place and would come back in a heartbeat. Book this hotel!

    I can't think of a thing!!

    The friendly staff, the comfortable room and the central location made this the perfect hotel for me. Checking in was quick and easy and my room was ready so I was able to drop my luggage in the room and start exploring! Everything I wanted to see and do was within walking distance. Wish I could have stayed longer!!

    Delightful historic elegance and comfort

    The hotel is in the old canal district of the city with narrow streets and corridors between buildings. The sound of the occasional loud motorcycle and truck passing by reverberate loudly. That said, it was very quiet between about 11 pm and 5 am.

    There's a reason that The Royal Hotel is consistently at the top of list of best hotels in Göteborg. Excellent location, historic ambience, charming and elegant interior, remarkably friendly staff, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, great breakfast, and more... If you arrive by car, there is a parking garage across the street. We really enjoyed our short stay at The Royal in Göteborg and will definitely overnight here again.

    Nothing. All good.

    I loved staying at The Royal. I arrived after having emergency tooth extraction the day before, feeling drained. The Royal was like a big hug, a place to feel I could rest and recover. I would make a point of staying there again.
